Fishing was fair on opening day likely due to cold water temperatures. Brown trout are primarily feeding on worms therefore patterns mimicking worms can work well. Best fishing for brown trout is below Loosley Rd to Crooked Creek.

Drift boats can launch at Petric Park or Weed Road. Drift boats cannot get under the numerous bridges above Weed Road. Smaller watercraft can launch at the USFS Day Use Area, off Hwy 62 and at Loosley Rd Crossing.

Snowmelt is beginning and the river is slowly getting turbid. Remember all redband trout must be released.
